Taye4j:
I remember applying for a job in a bank some years back, after the test and interview, we were posted to Kano for training. This particular bank wanted to recruit people for their branches in the South West.

When we finished our training in Kano, we were told to select any state of choice in the South West with a stern warning that : anybody who picks Lagos as his/her state of choice would get an instant offer of employment the following week while those who choose other states may wait longer and may eventually forfeit their employment if there's no space available in that state

The first thought that came to my mind was: is there a special incentive or the salary that is paid in Lagos is much more higher than other states? Lo and behold, it's the same thing ! I chose Ibadan jejely. Those who chose Lagos got their call-up letter a week later truthfully, but I'm happy I risked it all not to die before my time by choosing Lagos.

Sincerely, Ibadan is far better. Even if I'm paid 80k I'd rather stay than go to Lagos for 150k. There are opportunities in Ibadan and cost of living is cheap, security is okay etc. As long as you involve God, it doesn't matter where you stay, opportunities will always comr your way.

Going by your whacked logic, creating job would mean enslaving others too

Let's get down to the topic.
If you were offered a Job in Lagos for N150k and you were offered the same job in Ibadan for N120k, which one will you go for?

ednut1:
Ibadan o. 50 naira bike or taxi at most. Lagos you go spend like 600 to 1000 naira plus 4 hours traffic

I was at Transamadi Portharcourt when these young men approached me and started preaching about NeoLife,

I listened intently to them, they said a job was slavery, that it was a temporal solution to a long term problem.

They said Jobs means Just over broke

They were inspiring, they had sweet tongues and almost bought me over.

The point of the story is that, you will never be free working for somebody, Salary is a bribe to forget your own dream.

Even if you are paid a million naira it won't still solve your problems, once you make 100k, you will have 200k problems.

If you make 1 million you will have 2 million naira problem.

Your child cannot inherit your job,

create jobs rather than coming here to compare jobs

Hello there,

I don't know what the two jobs are, but I can tell you for free that 120k job in Ibadan is far better than 150k job in Lagos in terms of standard of living.

You may however need to look beyond that, most of the jobs in Ibadan are branch level jobs (the head offices are in Lagos), meaning that, two people starting their career on the same day in Lagos (HQ) and Ibadan (branch) will most likely not be on the same level in 24 months down the line. The guy is HQ would have gotten at least a promotion while you are still enjoying your 120K

Ask yourself again, what is the prospects of being at Ibadan after 5 to 7 years? How many job opportunities are in Ibadan compared to Lagos? Will it be easy to find a good manager level job in Ibadan in about 5 years time at least compared to Lagos?

Don't only think of today when choosing a new job, think strategically, you will thank me in years to come, I am telling you that from my over 20 years of experience!

sinola:
Better stay in Lagos or else you want to waste your whole youthful age in that low life Ibadan.
In lagos, you can still see side hussles to compliment to what you have unlike in that village.
Don't solely rely on salary cos no one becomes successful rich with only salary.

yetunsbay:
lol. Such people can always be found everywhere
